Well, everyone should know the popular song, Tik Tok by Ke$ha or at least heard of it. It was the number 1 on billboard list for nine consecutive weeks. Her upcoming album, Animal was highly anticipated and hit stores on January 5, 2010. I loved the song Tik Tok …

The PV starts out with a sepia toned scene of Koda, who’s playing a woman of early 20th Century America being dumped. It then switches to color and remains that way for the rest of the video. I found the shift to be interesting as it conveyed her past …

Long time listeners of Godsmack beware! Godsmack has released an acoustic album.
The tranquility of the album from beginning to end is not to be surpassed. From the opening track, “Running Blind”, Godsmack delivers a powerful punch delivered in a soothing form.

I admit that even though I have been reviewing mostly indie and alternative music in this site, I’m still a huge fan of Pop music especially after country superstar Taylor Swift converted into the genre.
Obviously, we all know that Taylor Swift was not a pop star for at least …

Looking back i can’t believe just how strong the thrash metal scene was in 1986. I mean not only did Metallica and Megadeth release instant classics but Slayer also got into the mix.
I think they were pretty smart though, because they made sure that they had a different …

Say my name by Destiny’s Child is a song that is sad in the way that it talks about how this girl realizes her boyfriend is cheating on her and he is not willing to say her name anymore. That would rouse any girl suspicion when her boyfriend won’t …

Unplugged is a song by The Flaming Lips which appears on their album Hear It Is. Interestingly enough, the track opens up with a distorted guitar riff which actually has a pretty driving sound to it, certainly not the sound that the Flaming Lips would come to be known …

I was browsing through some of my old CDs, and I came across The Purple Tape by Lisa Loeb. It’s been awhile since I listened to it, so I put it on to listen. I remember Lisa Loeb, with her specky image, and a sort of like a …

This is one of the music channels on directv. Overall it’s pretty good but they could put some better music on it. I listen to it sometimes. First I go to xmhitlist, then I go to 20 on 20 then I go to this channel. Mostly they have alternative …

I can’t even begin to explain the excitement that I felt when I heard that Opio from the Hieroglyphics crew would be dropping a solo release. He has always been one of my favorite rappers from the Hieroglyphics crew. The first time I heard word of his solo album …

This album titled —˜City of Evil’ is the third album to be released by hardcore rockers Avenged Sevenfold, and also the album that boosted the bands popularity and mainstream success. Out of the four albums in total that have been released, this is my personal favourite as it has some …

To be honest, I don’t really care for Britney Spears in any way shape or form. Her live performances sound terrible and she truly did not and does not set an example for her younger fans, primarily girls in their ‘tween years. However, one song of hers has …

AWESOME!!!! My girlfriend bought this cd for me because she liked it and I was a little hesitant, but I decided to give it a try. Now I am addicted! She starts out with a pretty generic fun pop song breakout that isn’t your favorite on the cd, but …

The Gift by Garth Brooks is kind of an odd song for him in my opinion. Don’t get me wrong it’s a very beautiful song but it has a certain Spanish flavor and tone to the song. That is something I would not have expected to hear in …

I have been a fan of the Black Eyed Peas music for some time; I like the mix of hip-hop, pop and dance, and it is great music to have on my IPod while working out. I downloaded their new CD, —˜The E.N.D.” as soon as it came out, …

Fast Car is a folk rock song from Tracy Chapman from her self titled album. I first thought that Tracy is a woman but when I saw her face in the net I have doubts if she is really a woman. Even in the internet, people are being confused …

I have no idea how I started listening to this band. I think it was because of the style they were playing, dubbed shoegazing, and that sounded pretty interesting. I was thinking, what can shoegazing be, or what sort of a music is that, and so, I stumbled upon …

Trust me, this album is very special. I remember how I listened to this album for the first time, and how I was impressed by what I heard. I liked the debut album by U2, called Boy. I did not like the second album, October, at all. But then …

Mary J. Blige is a real great crooner. She sings from her heart and whenever I hear her sing, I know she sings sincerely as well and takes real care in her songs and the makings of it.
I have this particular CD album from her titled, Growing …

“Black Sails In The Sunset” is one of the premier punk albums of the 90s. Put simply, it is a solid record with no filler, and provides an hour of some of the best and fullest punk of the 1990s. It is certainly AFI’s best record in my opinion. …

Survivor are a bit of an acquired taste i know, but throughout the years they have been one of my favorite bands to follow and am a fan of each different era of the band no matter what vocalist they had at the time. Sure the people’s choice is …

I have a rather mixed feeling for Jessica Simpson’s vocal voice and her music. Some of her songs are super cool and some are not. In this case, I find I Belong To Me by Jessica Simpson a totally wonderful song and it is powerful enough to conjure …

This song is very unique and different from a lot of other songs that I have heard. The first time I heard it I loved it. It’s one of my favorite songs right now and I really love it. I could probably listen to it over and over again …

Here comes the judge! That’s right, this is the album that proved to the world Soundgarden was a legitimate threat to any rock Gods previous. Badmotorfinger, Soundgarden’s forth album, is where it really starts to get good.
Oh, man. I can hear the start of Rusty Cage playing in …

I think that this album is one of the albums by KMFDM that you can listen to but I wouldn’t describe it in any ways as essential. This band is releasing an album every two years, and I’ve always thought that there might be the danger of them simply …

This is a good new cd. It is Lenny Kravitz’s newest cd. Compared to Lenny Kravitz’s other cd’s, such as Baptism, and the Lenny Kravitz Greatest Hits, this is nothing. With his other cd’s compared to other cd’s he has to many slow songs. By slow, I mean a …

Blowin’ In The Wind, one of Bob Dylan’s most famous and ionic songs throughout his extremely lengthy career proves to certainly meet it’s reputation as the track itself is just great. As with most early Bob Dylan, or rather most Bob Dylan for that matter, the track isn’t driven …

The Dean Boca 12 String Semi-Hollow Body Electric Guitar (wow that’s a long name) is my favorite 12 string guitar, after the Rickenbacker. I ordered it online from Musicians Friend. A lot of 12 strings have a nice sound but lack that classic 60’s quality that is …
